Stained Glass - PARADIGM II
Stained Glass - PARADIGM II
It all depends on how you look at it. As with any artist, he is asking you to see what YOU see in his work. And of course as is the nature of the medium, the colours will change as the light changes. Every design is one-of-a-kind, and every piece is created with the skill of this accomplished artist. Note the details like the curved bevels that frame the centre "pie" of colours, and the bevels around the perimeter of the entire piece. Hung in a window with direct sunlight, this piece will create rainbows around the room - magical.
Framed Size: 22" x 19 1/2" in a solid wood frame made by the artist. Can be hung either landscape or portrait orientation. Currently the hooks are installed to hang landscape. Please note if you would like that changed.
Due to size and weight this piece is not available by shipping. It is available for delivery to Cambridge, Kitchener/Waterloo, Stratford, Dundas, and surrounding areas.
The Artist: Stained glass artist Wayne Reardon grew up in St. John’s, Newfoundland, where he first developed an admiration of the historic stained glass windows in churches and homes. He was also inspired by the iconic brightly coloured houses of Newfoundland. After moving to Toronto in his early 20’s Wayne’s interest in stained glass grew as he walked through the old Toronto neighbourhoods and admired the artistry of the many stained glass windows. He decided to learn the art of stained glass at a small shop in Cabbagetown, and began designing and creating custom designs. His passion was ignited, and led him to further develop his skills at night school. Raising a family and a career in accounting and then horticulture put his stained glass on hold for a few years, but the move to Galt, Ontario inspired Wayne to reconnect to his art. He has been creating amazing high-quality pieces of bevelled, coloured and patterned glass ever since. “I design pieces that emphasize the beauty of the glass and, in keeping with my Libra nature, I prefer clean and balanced lines. From the onset of designing and creating the style to selecting the colours and textures of glass, I feel a deep connection with the past.”
